Perforations are back! At least in the House of Fendi they are. This time around, they arrive with an unusual presentation. A couple of season’s back, we saw the handbag within a handbag trend, a style fond to the peculiar bagista. This season, Fendi has selected both fashion statements and merged them together to create the ‘B Fab’ Perforated Bag. Thoughts? It originally reminded me of the Dooney & Bourke Florentine Collection with its vintage leather body, embroidered front patch and its dangling tassels gave off that impression as well.

The Zac Posen Sweet Danger Clutch is a very interesting-looking piece. When I first laid eyes on it, that glossy patent red leather really grabbed my attention. It is very bold for such a small bag. What I find most interesting, however, is the way the patent leather is displayed. The sides of this clutch are composed of patent leather strips that are tiled in rows. It sort of reminds me of slats of wood siding that have been painted red. Almost like a big red barn! I suppose the prism shape of this clutch only adds to that effect, making it a 3-dimensional big red barn!

Happening right now over at ideeli, the “Designer Luxe” sale! 7 handpicked handbags by Hermes, Gucci, Celine and Chanel.

Find a lovely raisin purple calfskin Hermes Buffle Gala wallet on sale for just under $600 (reg $749) or an awesome pre-loved Chanel Lizard purse with tassel for $1899 (reg $4,000)…

When I first glanced at the bag you see here, I wasn’t really sure what I was looking at. This is a bit embarrassing, but I thought it was some sort of “ink blot” design. You know, like the ink blot tests a psychiatrist might use. Then I realized this was a bag from Karl Lagerfeld’s new line that just debuted (and is being exclusively offered) at Net-A-Porter. Haha!

The new line, appropriately titled KARL, is all about downtown style. KARL offers a great selection of clothing, shoes, and handbags. The best part? Mr. Lagerfeld has brought us all of this at a price everyone can afford. Most items fall within the $100 to $400 range!

The Cambon tote is by far one of the best interpretations of a modern staple to the House of Chanel. Being one of the most popular collections to the French brand, it has fallen victim to one of the most popular knockoff styles as well. Regardless, I’ll always take a moment and admire an authentic Cambon as they’re eye-catching and attractive as well. The Cambon collection was a massive hit years back amongst celebrities and fashionista’s alike. By far, my favorite from the collection was the black lambskin tote with the black interlocking C’s. The vintage devoting line of What Goes Around Comes Around has recently obtained one and this classic tote bag is expected to sell quick!

Aussie model and Victoria’s Secret Angel Miranda Kerr was spotted at the airport in Sydney over the weekend. Accompanied by her son, Flynn, she was returning to her hometown where her family resides. Both were dressed in comfy clothing, baby in little sweat pants and mom in a pair of skinny leather pants and a loose fitting tee. What grabbed my attention though was the bag slung over Miranda’s shoulder. That is no baby bag! It’s the Alexander Wang Diego Bucket Bag!

When I discovered the Cambridge Fluoro Satchel, the Kate Spade Essex Scout was the first thing that came to mind. I mean without a doubt the style is identical with minor detail differences here and there. Also the Essex Scout seems to be on the Out over at the Kate Spade headquarters. It appears that there’s only one available, in a beige crocodile print over at Piperlime for $395 – that price tag is about double, making this Cambridge Fluoro Satchel the ultimate look-for-less.
